Description from the seller
A visually striking pair of vintage porcelain apothecary jars.
The "Arsenic" jar captures a classic Neo-Baroque aesthetic, utilizing an elegant cobalt blue and gold leaf scrollwork frame offset by delicate yellow floral details. The "Cocaïna" jar defaults to a stately Neoclassical layout, featuring a golden shield flanked by laurel leaves and anchored by a vivid red Caduceus—the ancient symbol of medicine and alchemy.
